Missing
7 Signs Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm walking down your street again,
And past your door,
But you don't live there anymore.
It's years since you've been there.
Now you've disappeared somewhere
Like outer space,
And I miss you
Like the deserts miss the rain.
Could you be dead?
You always were two steps ahead
Of everyone.
We'd walk behind while you would run.
I look up at your house,
And I can almost hear you shout
Down to me
Where I always used to be,
And I miss you
Like the deserts miss the rain.
Back on the train,
I ask why did I come here.
Can I confess
I've been hanging around your old address?
And the years have proved
To offer nothing since you moved.
You're long gone
But I can't move on,
And I miss you
Like the deserts miss the rain
I step off the train,
I'm walking down your street again,
And past your door,
I guess you don't live there anymore.
It's years since you've been there.
Now you've disappeared somewhere
Like outer space,
You've found some better place,
And I miss you
Like the deserts miss the rain
And I miss you
Like the deserts miss the rain (deserts miss the rain)
"Missing" is a melancholic love song by 7 Signs & Julia Simon that is about a person who is longing for a past love who has gone missing from their life. The song is about how the singer feels when they visit the places where their former partner once lived, and how they are haunted by the ghosts of their past relationship. The song's lyrics are simple yet profound, and they convey the emotional depth of the journey the singer is on.
The song starts with the singer stepping off a train and walking down their former partner's street. They are reminded of their past love by their former partner's house, but they realize that their partner does not live there anymore. The singer misses their former partner, and they can't help but think about them everywhere they go. The song's chorus emphasizes the depth of the singer's longing when it compares their love for their former partner to the way the deserts miss the rain.
In the second verse of the song, the singer wonders if their partner is dead, as they were always two steps ahead of everyone. The singer finds it difficult to move on from the past without the assurance that their former partner is still alive. The singer reflects on the time they spent with their former partner, and how they always felt like runners-up to them.
As the song comes to a close, the singer is reminded of their former partner's absence once again, as they walk past their old house. The song ends on the same note it began, with the singer longing for their former partner and comparing their love to the way the deserts miss the rain.

I feel this way…
My best friend came over to my house for the first time and meet my mom.
They got close and started hanging out
I didn’t see anything wrong with it but they jokingly said “I’m gonna steal your mom”
I felt weird but just laughed and said “Yeah right, you can try”
Because I knew that they would never replace me.
But they started calling my mom the same way I call her “Má”
And my mom wants them to come over even when I say I don’t want to invite them because I want time for myself .
My mom called them a nickname today at night that they only called me ..
It kinda daunt on me…when I felt the pain in my chest…
I played it off by laughing and joking with them but right after I got out the shower I started crying….
I didn’t want to feel jealous and be selfish..
Idk why I’m so hurt but the feeling of being replaced…
it was like I feeling of betrayal that I felt, I didn’t want my friend to come over at my house anymore and I wanted to make them think that my mom didn’t like them that much and make them stop calling my mom “Má”
….
Not even my brother calls her that and I don’t get jealous with him and my mom being together and bonding.
It was just my friend that made me feel that way…I know my mom wouldn’t replace me but it just my own insecurities…
The same friend also did the same when talking to my cousin…
I felt the same feeling but it hurts more when they do that with my mom.
They also…kind of make me feel guilty when I share my achievements with them because they didn’t do well and start thinking negative. They compare themselves to me, specially in one class…soccer..Idk why but when I accidentally ran 6 laps on try outs instead of 5 they said, “I’m gotta make sure I run 6 laps or more too” and I just looked at them and my other friend seemed to notice that they wanted to compete with me at everything…
It feels like they try to have and take things that I got…Idk if I’m being over dramatic..

@Soleilsonira oh dear. I must tell you something. The reason why you didn't know of this before is simply because we don't want to show to others how truly insecure we feel inside, how vulnerable we are. And that's because we think that if we tell our partners how we fear they will abandon us they will use it against us at every chance.
I ve never confessed to my past relationships how much I feared they will get tired/ bored, whatever, of me, and they will abandon me.
You do not confess such a thing to your partner.. unless you know the person for years and you feel confident enough to project all the flaws in your soul, how deeply insecure you truly are as a human being.
If the fear is intense though after a bar argument or after some relationship situation where she doesn't get your attention enough to keep the fear limited, she will act in panic and you will notice that, doing anything it takes to keep you with her because the fear of you abandoning her in her soul is that enormous that it even exceeds her judgement of being still in love with you still herself or not if for some reason the relationship isn't going well.
I had and still have but to a bit lesser extent the fear of abandonment not only with relationships but also with friend's, I always deep inside fear that for some reason they will forget about me or they will simply leave me and stop calling overall. But I'm working hard on it and I try to catch the thought of this fear right at the moment, as soon as it tries to take over and make me sweat in fear.
I can also tell you where it comes from. It's our parents. Poor or wrong parenting. It is always them! My mother, when I was a kid, used to have bad fights with my father in front of me and she used to threaten him also in from of me that she would leave him and me altogether...I didn't know I ve still had memories of it as a child, with Psychotherapy I recalled all these faint but painful memories.
Apart that, she used to put her own personal life above me and used to leave me very much alone when I was younger after school, to this day I'm still mad at her and when we fight I always automatically tell her she should have never become a mother and how much that hurt me continuously and for years till I was 14 and didn't just care anymore if she's home or not.
It almost always comes from wrong pathogenic parenting.
Talk with your girlfriend, open an honest and brave conversation about it with her, slowly and progressively, ask her if her parents did something to hurt her when she war younger, talk to her into opening her soul to you and all the dark secrets will progressively but for sure come to the surface and you will be truly surprised.
Not only that, but that will help her trust you and go much easier with your relationship, she will be filled with deep appreciation and love for you cause she will notice that you truly care... That for us suffering to that thing is truly huge!
We don't trust people, we always assume the worse is about to come. It will take your relationship into a much more deeper, more open, more honest and truly human and mature stage where you are both in they level that you can enjoy your relationship deeply with no fears and insecurities but joy and trust

I definitely have abandonment issues. I had a rough childhood. My stepmother hated me, so I had to stay in my room when I wasn't at school to be separated from her. Eventually I was placed in foster care group homes until I aged out. My dad hates conflict, so that was the better alternative.
I'm grown now, but it's so hard to let it go.
I was a wanderer for a long time. My friends and family say i have "rabbit" in my blood because I have trouble staying in one place. It's hindered a lot of my life because I am always trying to find excuses to leave one place to another. It's reduced me to homelessness a few times. Sometimes all it takes is a few small things to go wrong and I'm pulling out the map to pick another random spot.
I have an apartment now, and a full time job. I'm struggling and fighting with myself to just stay. Anytime i have a rough day at work, i start getting that rabbit blood again. I usually feed my mind with what it was like to live on the streets, that is usually enough to scare me to just go to bed.
I will confess, i am jealous of people who have families. I cannot have fun to save my life. I don't like people to know where I really came from so I lie because I'm ashamed.
I have come a long way, to be sure. But being alone is miserable, but not being alone triggers these self destructive behaviors. I just need to find a middle ground.

@gh0st-friend
my fear of abandonment came from losing about 5 of friends because they moved away and we lost contact. im constantly afraid that my new friends (i am very attached to them) will move away and im constantly asking them if they're gonna leave anytime soon.
@darklycan4583
I just avoid people so I don't hav3 to worry about being abandoned again

Admit it, we're only here because we just wanted validation for what we already knew.
